Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organisations, market surveillance etc.)
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e. g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or
type-B standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of
the other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of
this type-C standard.”
Acknowledging that, at the time of publication, the requirements included in this document do not
represent the state of the art, a transition period of 24 months is permitted after the date of publication,
such that manufacturers can develop their products sufficiently to meet the requirements of this
standard.
The purpose of this document is to address the operator's visibility in such a manner that the operator
can see around the slewing rough-terrain variable-reach truck to enable proper, effective and safe
operation that can be quantified in objective engineering terms. This document includes a test method
that uses two lights placed at the location of the operator’s eyes. The maskings due to the truck, its
components and attachments and a standard test load are determined around the truck, starting at a
boundary line 1 m away from the smallest rectangle that encompasses the truck out to the visibility
test circle. The radius of the circle is 12 m. The method used does not capture all of the aspects of
the operator’s visibility but provides information to assist in determining the acceptability of visibility
from the truck. Criteria are included in this document to provide guidance for designers as to the extent
of visibility maskings that are acceptable.
Due to the truck’s capability and the intended operation mode of the truck, the test method is divided
into 4 tests representing the main utilisation:
— driving between 2 work sites, at high speed: visibility is checked in the front sector of the 12m
boundary. Crab steering and 4-wheel steering are not permitted at high speed, so there is no need
to check visibility at the sides of the truck, neither at the rear-side;
— pick-and-carry: manoeuvring and slewing at low speed on work site, with possible crab or 4-wheel
steering, in both forward and backward direction. The risk is then in close proximity of the truck
and visibility is checked at 1 m rectangular boundary all around the truck except for trucks with
an operating mass greater than 20 tons or a maximum lift height above 20 m, where the distance is
greater than 1 m to the front of the truck;

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 18063-2:2021
ISO 18063-2:2021(E)

— pick-and-place: slewing the upper structure at low speed, the truck being on stabilisers (if any) in
static position. The risk is in close proximity of the boom and/or the tail. The test can be performed
in any position of the upper structure, and this document considers the worst case, i.e. when in
forward aligned position. Therefore, visibility is checked at 1 m rectangular boundary except for
trucks with an operating mass greater than 20 tons or a maximum lift height above 20 m, where the
distance is greater than 1 m to the front of the truck;
— on forks: the market is now offering trucks with long reach (up to 40 m and more). Visibility to the
forks is then of high importance to ensure visibility to the overall front size of the truck.
For the eye spacing, adjustments (up to the limits specified in Tables 1 and 2) can be made considering
that the operator has the capability to turn their head and move their body torso side to side. The eye
spacings used are less than the maximum permitted values based on the ergonomics of the operator.
This is done to maintain the current state-of-the-art of trucks.
Standard test loads are carried on devices on the truck during the visibility tests. They are intended
to be dimensionally representative of typical loads carried by slewing rough-terrain variable-reach
trucks and are used to determine their masking effects and to define representative boom geometry of
the truck in normal uses.
The established visibility performance criteria are based on the physical aspects of the human
operators and ground personnel using various representative dimensions and the design of trucks that
have provided acceptable visibility. To establish the visibility criteria, a combination of the eye spacings
and masking widths are used. Multiple maskings in sectors are acceptable where there is adequate
spacing between the individual maskings. Where the direct visibility is considered inadequate,
additional devices for indirect visibility [mirrors or closed-circuit television cameras (CCTV)], can be
used to achieve acceptable visibility. For the rectangular boundary (RB) additional devices for indirect
visibility (mirrors or CCTV) are preferred. Other aids (see ISO 16001) can be used exceptionally.

Introduction
This European Standard is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this standard.
Acknowledging that, at the time of publication, the requirements included in this standard do not
represent the state of the art, a transition period of 24 months is permitted after the date of publication,
such that manufacturers can develop their products sufficiently to meet the requirements of this
standard.
Where there are provisions of this type-C standard which are different from those which are stated in
type A or B standards, the provisions of this type-C standard take precedence over the provisions of
the other standards, but only for machines that have been designed and built in accordance with the
provisions of this type-C standard.
For relationship with EC Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA which is integral part of this document.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia,
Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
The purpose of this standard is to address the operator's visibility in such a manner that the operator
can see around the slewing rough-terrain variable-reach truck to enable proper, effective and safe
operation that can be quantified in objective engineering terms. This standard includes a test method
that uses two lights placed at the location of the operator’s eyes. The maskings due to the truck, its
components and attachments and a standard test load are determined around the truck, starting at a
boundary line 1 m away from the smallest rectangle that encompasses the truck out to the visibility
test circle. The radius of the circle is 12 m. The method used does not capture all of the aspects of
the operator’s visibility, but provides information to assist in determining the acceptability of visibility
from the truck. Criteria are included in this standard to provide guidance for designers as to the extent
of visibility maskings that are acceptable.
Due to the truck capability and the intended operation mode of the truck, the test method is divided
into 4 tests representing the main utilisation:
— driving between 2 work sites, at high speed: visibility is check in the front sector of the 12m
boundary. Crab steering and 4-wheel steering are not permitted at high speed, so there is no need
to check visibility of sides of the truck, neither at the rear-side;
— pick-and-carry: manoeuvring and slewing at low speed on work site, with possible crab or 4-wheel
steering, in both forward and backward direction. The risk is then in close proximity of the truck
and visibility is checked at 1m rectangular boundary all around the truck;
— pick-and-place: slewing the upper structure at low speed, the truck being on stabilisers (if any) in
static position. The risk is in close proximity of the boom and/or the tail. The test could be performed
in any position of the upper structure, and this standard will consider the worst case, i.e. when in
forward aligned position. Therefore, visibility is checked at 1m rectangular boundary;
— on forks: the market is now offering trucks with long reach (up to 40 m and more). Visibility to the
forks is then of high importance to ensure visibility to the overall front size of the machine.
For the eye spacing adjustments (up to the limits specified in Tables 1 and 2) can be made considering
that the operator has the capability to turn the head and move the body torso side to side. The eye
spacings used are less than the maximum permitted values based on the ergonomics of the operator.
This is done to maintain the current state-of-the-art of trucks.

Standard test loads are carried on devices on the truck during the visibility tests. They are intended to
be dimensionally representative of typical loads carried by variable-reach slewing trucks and are used to
determine their masking effects and to define representative boom geometry of the truck in normal uses.
The established visibility performance criteria are based on the physical aspects of the human operators
and ground personnel using various representative dimensions and the design of trucks that have
provided acceptable visibility. To establish the visibility criteria, a combination of the eye spacings and
masking widths are used. Multiple maskings in sectors are acceptable where there is adequate spacing
between the individual maskings. Where the direct visibility is considered inadequate, additional
devices for indirect visibility [mirrors or closed circuit television cameras (CCTV)], can be used to
achieve acceptable visibility. For the rectangular 1 m boundary (RB) additional devices for indirect
visibility (mirrors or CCTV) are preferred. Other aids (see ISO 16001) can be used exceptionally.
ISO 18063 consists of the following parts, under the general title Rough-terrain trucks — Visibility test
methods and their verification:

Rough-terrain trucks — Visibility test methods and their
verification —
Part 2:
Slewing trucks
1 Scope
This standard applies to rough-terrain slewing variable-reach trucks (herein-after referred to as
‘trucks’) as defined in ISO 10896-2 that have a specific seated operator’s position, on the left hand side
of the boom, or centre position (excluding operator position on the right side of the boom).
This standard specifies a static test method for determining and evaluating the operator’s visibility on
a rectangular 1 m boundary close around the slewing rough-terrain variable-reach truck and on a 12 m
visibility test circle. Performance requirements for visibility are specified in this standard.
It applies to trucks for operation on work sites.

7 Measurement procedure
7.1 Test-surface marking and truck location on the test surface
7.1.1 Mark a visibility test circle of 12 m radius on the test surface with the two centrelines as shown
in Figure 2. Mark the centre-point of the visibility test circle to enable accurate alignment of the truck
(see 6.3.1).
7.1.2 Mark where the sector A intersects the line of the circle on the test surface as shown in Figure 2.
7.1.3 Position the fork mounted load and adjust the boom and forks as defined in 6.3.2.2.
NOTE RB remains the same for all tests and is measured and set as illustrated in Figure 2 and Figure 3
7.1.4 Mark the test machine boundary (TMB) as the smallest rectangle that can be placed around the
vertical projection of the truck (i.e. chassis + upper structure) and test load as shown in Figure 2.
7.1.5 Mark the rectangular 1 m boundary (RB) on the test surface at a distance of 1 m from the test
machine boundary, as shown in Figure 2.
